Just as the Broncos look to patch up their poor form, two players have been charged by the NRL judiciary

Middle forward Joe Ofahengaue is facing a lengthy stint on the sidelines after being cited for a grade one shoulder charge in Brisbane's defeat to Gold Coast.

Wing Corey Oates has been hit with a grade one contrary conduct charge for abusing a referee.

While Oates will pay a fine, Ofahengaue will miss two weeks with an early guilty plea, and three weeks should he fight the charge and lose.

Raiders wing Jordan Rapana also faces a fine, after receiving a grade one careless high tackle charge.
